There are about 173942 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in United States. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
REPAIR-ALS is a single-center open label pilot, sequential group, investigator and patient blinded study to assess the CNS metabolic effects, safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of CNM-Au8 in patients who have been diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) within twelve (12) months of Screening. The primary endpoint is the ratio of the oxidized to reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+:NADH) measured non-invasively by 31phosphorous magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P-MRS).
Approximately 15-20% of children in the United States suffer from the symptoms of atopic dermatitis (eczema), which include pruritus, pain, irritation, and difficulty sleeping. Tencel fabric has been marketed as a superior fabric for children with atopic dermatitis due to improved moisture absorption and decreased bacterial growth compared to cotton and synthetic fabrics. However, no dermatologic studies have been conducted on Tencel fabric. The investigators' objective is to perform a randomized double-blinded trial comparing Tencel garments to traditional cotton for children with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis. The investigators hypothesize that children in the Tencel group will demonstrate improvement in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) scores, Investigator's Global Assessment, pruritus as measured by ItchyQoL: A Pruritus-Specific Quality of Life Instrument, and Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDQLI) or Infant's Dermatitis Quality of Life Index (IDQoL). An randomized double-blind trial of 12 weeks duration will be conducted. Fifty children age 6 months to 6 years with moderate to severe eczema will be recruited from the Johns Hopkins pediatric dermatology clinic and given 6 weeks of standard skin directed therapy followed by 6 weeks during which children will be randomized to treatment with Tencel vs. cotton therapeutic garments in addition to standard eczema care. The primary outcome will be eczema severity as assessed by EASI score by blinded and trained investigators. Secondary outcomes will include patient-reported eczema symptoms (assessed through quality of life and pruritus scales, CDQLI or IDQoL and ItchyQoL scores) and frequency of infection of eczema lesions. Adherence with wearing study garments and usage of standard eczema treatments (topical corticosteroids and calcineurin inhibitors, emollients, and wet/dry wraps) will also be assessed.
This study will measure Interleukin 6 (IL-6), a well-documented inflammatory biomarker that is increased in the acute phase of stroke, and to compare its levels after the administration of melatonin - a well-documented anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant - that regulates circadian rhythm, which helps promote sleep.
This phase II trial studies how well daratumumab, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone work in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has come back (relapsed). Immunotherapy with daratumumab may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as pomalidomide and dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving daratumumab with dexamethasone and pomalidomide may work bettering in treating patient compared to dexamethasone and pomalidomide alone.
The purpose of this study is to compare the outcomes of an Adductor canal block (ACB) + interspace between the popliteal artery and the capsule of the knee (IPACK) block along with a single intraoperative injection of a standard local anesthetic that includes Ropivacaine, Epinephrine, Ketorolac, Clonidine and saline to an ACB + IPACK block without the intraoperative injection of a standard local anesthetic in patients undergoing Robotic Arm-Assisted TKA (RA-TKA).
The purpose of this pilot study is to determine if washing out the bladder with large volumes of saline after surgical removal of bladder tumors helps to decrease the number of loose cells floating within the bladder after surgery. Anticipated decrease in tumor recurrence and/or progression rates will be measured.
The purpose of this study is to create a human-readable and executable computer language to implement medical prescriptions and to evaluate and refine this language, with the goal of improving safety and efficacy of patient care
We will investigate the association between social media use and depression in adolescents admitted to a psychiatric unit and continue to follow their progress after discharge in outpatient clinic services. We expect improvement in their depressive symptoms by modifying social media use and adding a mental health app to further encourage the positive effects of social media.
IMGN853 is designed to inhibit cell division and cell growth of folate receptor 1 (FRĪ±)-expressing tumor cells. The purpose of this study is to test the safety of IMGN853 and bevacizumab and see what effects (good and bad) that this combination treatment has on subjects with recurrent endometrial cancer.
This study will evaluate physiological and behavioral responses to vaporized delta9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) administered via inhalation.
